in part, i think that the democratic defense is too close. it has been wrapped around the axle, the polarization -- in this whole situation, bullies win. chavez is nothing more than the borracho in the cantina. he calls people out and insult people and multilateral institutions. we all fear would happen, but i don't think the multilateral community should call what happened a coup. no one dared raise any questions about the levels of polarization and what this meant for respect for the letter or the spirit of the constitution on what this meant for the potential for conflict. worse, this is a government that is very good at gaining the system. it is always in shades of gray. i don't mean the cheesy novel. [laughter] but consistently naming the supreme court justices in conflict. the constitution requires an election within 30 days. if they were wise, they could hold it in five, still within the letter of the constitution. what is sad, what happened in the decision of the supreme court is that there were over 4 million people whose voices were
